Hi MohamedSaeed,

if "compress folder" means "get files in folder into a .zip" (instead of "magically
having a compressed folder on a non NTFS file system") you could use a ZIP
tool (winzip, 7zip, tar/gzip, ...) to do that from a command line or via WSHShell.Run/Exec.

Good luck!

Is there a native to Xp/2003 Zip that is exposed to vbscript? the closest I have come is to have a COM object expose an API, but I wonder if there is a native method.
